[edit] Unresolved matter

• Translations for 專區 and 特區
  • Problem: Because 專 & 特 both mean "special" in English, and the 區's obviously are obviously the same, the results could both be the same: Special district, special zone, special area.
  • Solution: Google searches didn't help. Temporarily simplify Romanize the terms in italics.
